I was criticized on a dating reality show, but I retaliated and became an internet sensation.

This question immediately piqued everyone's curiosity, and even Han Jingxue looked up at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan's gaze slowly swept over everyone, his tone low and gentle, without looking directly at anyone: "I came here for two reasons, firstly, because of someone's request, and secondly, because of someone."

Upon hearing this, Shu Zi was once again filled with confusion.

Is he crazy? They're even bringing up collaborations on TV?

[Entrusted by someone? Because of one person? That's a lot of information!]

[Again, "because of someone," hahaha, there are so many people!]

[Who is "someone"? Is it a guest at the event? I have absolutely no idea!]

Ignoring everyone's reactions, Gu Yan pointed directly at Yu Shize: "Next."

Yu Shize composed himself, stood up, pulled out a slip of paper, and read aloud: "Question: If your ex participated in a dating reality show with you, what would you do?"

This question seemed tailor-made for Yu Shize and Shu Zi, and the atmosphere in the courtyard instantly became somewhat subtle.

Yu Shize's gaze fell on Shu Zi, his tone tinged with a hint of probing:

"I will try to communicate with her again, clear up the misunderstandings of the past, and hope to be friends again."

He just received a message from his agent that Shu Zi's team has made the contract public. He has lost a lot of fans and can only try to make up for it by participating in this dating reality show.

Shu Zi rolled her eyes at him without any attempt to hide her disgust.

[Hahahaha! Zizi's eye roll is just hilarious!]

Judging from Shu Zi's attitude towards Shi Ze, I feel that Shu Zi couldn't possibly be a mistress!

[Didn't you guys see Weibo? Shuzi's team has already made it public: Shuzi was never that person!]

Shuzi Studio V:

Clarification Statement:

In response to the numerous false statements made online recently against my artist @舒姿zi V, I hereby issue the following clarification:

1. Shu Zi is currently single and has not engaged in any extramarital affairs. She is definitely not the "mistress" that netizens claim she is. All related malicious slanderous remarks are inconsistent with the facts.

2. Regarding the relationship between Shu Zi and @于时泽V, we would like to express our sincerest apologies for deceiving our fans and netizens regarding this CP pairing incident.

A year ago, Shize Fang Company took the initiative to contact our company and proposed a one-year CP (Contract Partner) bundled cooperation. The relevant cooperation agreement is detailed in the attached image.

Before signing the agreement, our company verified with Yu Shize Company and Yu Shize himself multiple times. Both parties clearly stated that they were single. For details of the relevant communication records, please see the attached image.

During the collaboration, our artists strictly adhered to the contract and did not breach the contract in any way. However, the other party's artists' deliberate concealment of the facts constituted a serious violation of the terms of the collaboration agreement between the two parties.

3. The cooperation agreement disclosed in this instance was not to be disclosed to the public as agreed. However, due to the recent spread of rumors online, it has had a great negative impact on Shu Zi's personal reputation and acting career, and seriously damaged the artist's legitimate rights and interests. Our company will bear the full amount of the liquidated damages required for the disclosure of the agreement.

Finally, we would like to apologize again to all fans who care about Shuzi and the general public for concealing the fact that she was being paired with another celebrity. We will pursue legal action against those who maliciously spread rumors to protect the legitimate rights and interests of our artist.

September 2026, 4]

The moment this statement was released, the comment section exploded.

[Has Shu Zi turned things around today?]: Help! It turns out it was a contractual relationship + the guy was hiding his relationship?! Shu Zi is so wronged! She's been called a homewrecker for so long, and it turns out she was just tricked by the guy from beginning to end?

[Eating gossip without spitting out the truth]: The studio even dared to release the contract directly; this is a fight to the death. Doesn't Yu Shize feel ashamed? Dating while lying to the woman's company about being single, and then using the CP (couple pairing) to leech off her—unbelievable!

[Shu Zi Fan Club Official Weibo]: Our baby has been wronged. We have always believed in Shu Zi's character; she has been the victim from beginning to end. From now on, we will only focus on her career and stay away from scumbags.

[Entertainment Gossip]:

Here's the summary:

1. Shu Zi is single, has not cheated, and is not a mistress.

2. It was Yu Shize Company that proactively requested to be bundled with the CP (Content Partner).

3. Yu Shize concealed his relationship and deceived Shu Zi and his studio.

4. To clarify the situation, the studio was willing to pay a penalty for breach of contract and publicly disclose the contract.

In this round, Shuzi is the clear winner.

Of course, many netizens disagreed:

[Now you know to come out and clarify? Where were you before? You only panicked after being criticized; otherwise, you kept pretending to be a couple. Did you think netizens were easy to fool?]

[It was a willing partnership, a pairing for publicity, and now that things have backfired, they're playing innocent. It's disgusting.]

[Who knows if this contract was added later? Celebrity statements are just for reference; do you really take them all as the truth?]

At the same time, related terms such as "Shu Zi and Yu Shize's contractual CP", "Shu Zi's clarification statement", and "Yu Shize's deception" also became trending topics.

Inside the Heartbeat House, Yu Shize's expression grew even more unpleasant, yet he was helpless and could only awkwardly point to Fang Yutong: "Next."

Fang Yutong stood up, took out a slip of paper, and read it aloud: "Question: Do you believe in love at first sight or love that grows over time?"

She smiled gently and said, "I believe in love that grows over time. I think feelings need to be cultivated slowly, and you can only truly understand someone after spending a lot of time together. Such feelings are more likely to last."

After saying that, she pointed to Su Yanhuan, "The last one, Huanhuan."

Su Yanhuan drew the last slip of paper and read it aloud: "Question: If you met someone you liked on the show, what would you do?"

Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she said a little shyly, "I'll take the initiative to get closer to him, talk to him more, and let him know how I feel! If you like someone, you should be brave and say it!"

After the game ended, Director Liu stepped forward again, beaming.

Wow! Everyone's answers are so sincere! It seems we've gotten even closer together!

He cleared his throat and continued announcing:

"Next comes what everyone is most concerned about—room allocation."

These words immediately perked everyone up.

"Our villa has four rooms on the second and four on the third floor. The girls live on the second floor, and the boys live on the third floor."

Director Liu paused, deliberately building suspense:

"Of the four rooms on each floor, two have balconies with good views and plenty of natural light, while the other two are regular single rooms. You'll know the difference once you've stayed there."

Su Yanhuan's eyes lit up: "Wow! A room with a huge view!"

Fang Yutong smiled gently: "I'll leave everything to the production team."

Director Liu clapped his hands: "To be fair, we won't pre-determine or show favoritism; we'll decide everyone by drawing lots. I've already prepared the slips of paper; the girls will draw first."

The staff quickly brought over a small box containing folded paper strips.

Shu Zi crossed her arms, looking nonchalant: "It's just taking a nap, any room is fine."

That's what she said, but her hand honestly reached in.

Fang Yutong drew a ticket first, opened it, and gently pursed her lips – it was a standard room.

Su Yanhuan drew a room as well, and got a regular room too. Her face immediately fell, her eyes full of regret: "Waaah, I didn't get a balcony room..."

Han Jingxue casually pulled out a drawer and opened it; it was a room with a balcony.

She glanced at the dejected Su Yanhuan beside her and said indifferently:

"Switch with me."
